Answered on 6th Mar '25
It's understandable to feel concerned about a delayed period after taking emergency contraception like the i-pill. This can sometimes cause temporary hormonal changes, leading to a shift in menstrual cycles. Factors such as stress, changes in routine, or just natural variations can also play a role. If her period does not appear in a week or more, or if there are any unusual symptoms, it's advisable to take a pregnancy test or consult a gynecologist. They can provide more personalized guidance and reassurance.

Why is my daughter's third period early 17 days ?
Female | 12
Irregular cycles often occur in the initial days when periods start. Factors like tension, diet shifts, workouts, or hormonal imbalances could cause early periods. Ensure she eat properly, sleeps sufficiently, and handles stress well. If this recurs or discomfort or heavy flow occurs, visit a gynecologist for further guidance.

Female | 19
The morning after pills help stop pregnancy after unprotected sex. They work best within three days but can help up to five days later. Some side effects like nausea or irregular bleeding may occur, but aren't serious. If you have severe pain or heavy bleeding, talk to a gynecologist right away.

I am pregnant in 7 weeks. Is it fine to use cold cap to treat strong flue when I am pregnant?
Female | 33
It would be medically incorrect to give a cold cap treatment when having a strong flu during pregnancy. As a rule, one should always get a recommendation from the obstetrician or gynecologist prior to starting taking any medicines or applying any treatments.

I am 22 years old and my period is delayed 3 days so how can I get my period
Female | 22
It's okay, sometimes it's absolutely normal that periods can be delayed without any consequent harm, just wait before you start to worry about it. Stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalances might be the culprits. Keeping track of any other symptoms you might have like cramps or mood swings can help a lot. Drinking plenty of water, eating healthy food, and sleeping enough might help you make your period regular.

Can hiv trasmission occur through transvaginal ultrasound
Female | 20
Transvaginal ultrasound is safe against HIV disease transmission. HIV is a disease transmitted via infected fluids such as blood, not through ultrasound tools. Symptoms of HIV look like the flu. To stop the infection use protection during seduction. Testing frequently will help to find the infection early. In case you doubt HIV, you should have a conversation with your gynecologist to get some information and support.

I’m 19 years old female and my boyfriend and I have unprotected sex. I take emergency pills within 24hours and after 1 week I got my period but it only last for 1 day. When my period stopped, after 2 days I notice some light viginal bleeding.
Female | 19
The release of hormones can cause an unusual period after consuming an emergency pill, as hormones may alter your menstrual cycle. A day of menstruation and some light spotting is quite common. Stress and hormone levels are also major culprits of these changes. However, you should closely observe your symptoms. Whether it’s heavy and long bleeding or any other worrisome symptoms, it's better to seek your gynecologist's advice
